Comedy Store hoodies, late-night sets, and honest crowds
- JRJoe Rogan
... you dare. (instrumental music plays)
- BSBrendan Schaub
I'll, I'll send you a link.
- JRJoe Rogan
For, here we go, shh, shh, shh.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Just do it.
- JRJoe Rogan
Three, dos, uno. (door closes) Yes! And we're live, ladies and gents. (laughs)
- BSBrendan Schaub
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Brendon Schaub with the official Comedy Store jersey on. That's a real Comedy Store hoodie. That's the real shit.
- BSBrendan Schaub
It's the real deal, man.
- JRJoe Rogan
You look like a doorman.
- BSBrendan Schaub
I look like a doorman.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, I wear those shits all the time.
- BSBrendan Schaub
I love them.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, me too.
- BSBrendan Schaub
I know, I finally got one.
- JRJoe Rogan
<< It's your motherfucking bravo. >>
- BCBryan Callen
Dude, you'd be head of security if you were working the door. You know what I mean?
- JRJoe Rogan
Too handsome?
- BCBryan Callen
Like, right away.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Dude, I'd-
- BCBryan Callen
Right away.
- BSBrendan Schaub
... I would do, uh, I'd work the, I'd be a doorman at the Comedy Store. Especially if they gave me spots in the OR, I'd 100% do that.
- BCBryan Callen
Shit.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, you'd get those 1:00 AM spots. You don't want them spots. Those spots are confidence crushers.
- BCBryan Callen
Ugh.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Yeah.
- BCBryan Callen
They make you wanna quit. (laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- BSBrendan Schaub
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Those spots-
- BCBryan Callen
Like, "Why am I doing this?" (laughs)
- 1:58 – 2:45
Actors doing standup, real comics, and Michael Rapaport improving
- JRJoe Rogan
You know what's really hilarious when you watch those guys try to do standup? When they get it in their head that they can't, they, you know, like, "Come on, I can't fail. I'm, everybody loves me."
- BSBrendan Schaub
Yeah, "I was crushing. I was murdering." (laughs)
- BCBryan Callen
Yeah, and then they, they see them go up at the store.
- BSBrendan Schaub
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
But I'll tell you what, man, Michael Rapport is getting pretty fucking sporty. I saw him do a couple of minutes the other day, and he seemed like a real comic. And I know he's only been doing it for, like, a little bit.
- BSBrendan Schaub
He did it before, and then he got into acting. Like, sort of-
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh.
- BSBrendan Schaub
I, I, I think he tried it before, but yeah, he's-
- JRJoe Rogan
He's getting-
- BSBrendan Schaub
Rapport's talented.
- JRJoe Rogan
He's getting good.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Yeah, yeah.
- BCBryan Callen
He's good to gather, sure.
- JRJoe Rogan
But he's, I saw him once, and it was, he was struggling a little bit, but it could've just been the crowd. But then I saw him recently, I'm like, "Damn."
- BCBryan Callen
He's a tall motherfucker too. I never realized that.
- JRJoe Rogan
Mm-hmm.
- BCBryan Callen
He's tall as fuck.
- JRJoe Rogan
He is tall.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Pretty tall.
- BCBryan Callen
Taller than you?
- JRJoe Rogan
Compared to you? No.
- BSBrendan Schaub
He, no...
- JRJoe Rogan
He's, like, he's a little shorter than Schaub.
- BSBrendan Schaub
6'2"?
- 2:45 – 4:18
Fight Companion begins: ESPN’s first big card and heavyweight greatness debates
- JRJoe Rogan
Ooh, Andre Fili. Eh, Andre Fili and Miles Jory, that's a good fucking fight.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Great fight.
- JRJoe Rogan
So, here we are, folks. This is A Fight Companion. This is, uh, ESPN's first real card. Not on ESPN+, this is on ESPN ESPN, which is huge for the sport. And Cain "motherfucking" Velasquez, my vote for the best heavyweight in the UFC ever. I think-
- BSBrendan Schaub
That's fair.
- JRJoe Rogan
... the most accomplished is Stipe, for sure. S- I mean, s- it's hard. Fabricio Werdum, what a fucking record that guy has.
- BSBrendan Schaub
There's a good argument for Werdum in there.
- JRJoe Rogan
He tapped Minota- uh, he's got a, there's a good argument for Minota- uh, for, uh, Ver- Werdum being one of the greatest of all time. 'Cause, uh, or the greatest. Because he tapped Minotauro, tapped Cain, tapped, uh, tapped Fedor. I mean, who the fuck has tapped all those guys?
- BCBryan Callen
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
I mean, he's, he's a motherfucker.
- BCBryan Callen
Yep.
- JRJoe Rogan
But as far as w- what I've seen from, like, when he's in his prime, well, you know, out- outside of all of his injuries, Cain at one point in time was just a storm. And, you know, I talked to... uh, it was really funny, man. We were backstage and I was talking to, uh, Bob Cook. And he's, and, uh, and I was like, "People wanna try to ride that storm out." And they were laughing. Bob Cook goes, "That storm never ends. Storm never ends." It doesn't.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Was it with his tenacity?
- JRJoe Rogan
His cardio was insanity. It didn't even make sense.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Remember when he beat, uh, JDS when it was J-D-S-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
... and then beat The Brakes off of him?
- JRJoe Rogan
Second fight and the third fight. Yeah.
- BCBryan Callen
Is that the-
- BSBrendan Schaub
He wouldn't have been the same.
- BCBryan Callen
He, uh, he, uh, he was on the first Fox card too.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yes.
- BCBryan Callen
Right?
- JRJoe Rogan
Yes.
- BSBrendan Schaub
And he lasted 26 seconds-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
... and he got, he got knocked out behind the air.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, yeah, JDS, but he wouldn't, he should-
- BSBrendan Schaub
That wasn't good for business.
- JRJoe Rogan
... who should not have been fighting. You know that.
- BSBrendan Schaub
JDS shouldn't have?
- 4:18 – 5:48
Ngannou’s threat, Stipe’s blueprint, and other ‘bad fight’ comparisons
- JRJoe Rogan
Okay. First round, Miles Jory, Andre Fili, and then of course, Cain's fighting the scariest motherfucker in the history of the sport.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Unless you can wrestle.
- JRJoe Rogan
In my, in my opinion... Unless you can wrestle.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Or unless you're a cardio machine.
- JRJoe Rogan
Well, y- after Stipe, you know, Stipe kind of exposed some holes in his game. But, you know, the guy's only been fighting for a few years.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Stipe did expose some... but, uh-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
... to Francis' credit, that, I mean... he fucking ate-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
... some big shots that it Stipe.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yep, yep.
- BSBrendan Schaub
And he took it.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yep.
- BSBrendan Schaub
And lasted all five rounds, so...
- JRJoe Rogan
And he came back and had a terrible fight with Derrick Lewis, but Derrick Lewis is a beast. And he was-
- BSBrendan Schaub
That was a bad fight.
- JRJoe Rogan
... he was very nervous. It was a bad fight. But then came back and stopped Curtis Blaydes.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Uh, yeah, clipped him.
- JRJoe Rogan
And Curtis, and Curtis Blaydes.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Curtis is a motherfucker.
- JRJoe Rogan
He is a motherfucker.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Worst fight, Derrick Lewis-Francis, which we thought there was gonna be fireworks, or Paul Daley-MVP last night. (snaps fingers)
- JRJoe Rogan
Um, no.
- BCBryan Callen
Fuck you, man.
- BSBrendan Schaub
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
I didn't see that.
- BCBryan Callen
Fuck you, bro.
- BSBrendan Schaub
How did he go?
- BCBryan Callen
Paul, Paul Daley went, "You know what? I'm a wrestler now."
- JRJoe Rogan
Dude, it was crazy.
- 5:48 – 11:44
MVP deep dive: point fighting style, size advantages, and takedown defense problems
- JRJoe Rogan
He scares the shit outta you with that power. You gotta mind your Ps and Qs. But what I like about Page is that I've always said that one day we're gonna see a guy who's a point fighter who learns how to do other shit. 'Cause those guys are impossible to hit 'cause their whole thing is lunging in and lunging out, lunging in and lunging out.
- BSBrendan Schaub
W- Wonderboy a little bit, right?
- JRJoe Rogan
Wonderboy a little bit, but he's more of a kickboxer-
- BSBrendan Schaub
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
... than a point fighter.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Not so much a point fighter.
- JRJoe Rogan
And phenomenal kickboxer. I mean...
- BSBrendan Schaub
Phenomenal.
- JRJoe Rogan
But, but-... po- what you, what you see from MVP is, like, one of the best point fighters that's ever even attempted to fight in MMA.
- BSBrendan Schaub
He doesn't get touched.
- JRJoe Rogan
He's so good.
- BSBrendan Schaub
He doesn't get touched.
- EBEddie Bravo
He actually won championships for point running?
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Monster.
- EBEddie Bravo
With, really?
- JRJoe Rogan
Against Raymond Daniels. You should see the two of them fight. Like, Raymond Daniels was another one who was a legit world-class point fighter.
- BSBrendan Schaub
And MVP's undefeated in professional boxing too.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah. Yes, un- but-
- BSBrendan Schaub
That fight wasn't-
- JRJoe Rogan
... who was he fighting?
- BSBrendan Schaub
He, oh, nobodies. But still.
- JRJoe Rogan
The re- the first real fight-
- BSBrendan Schaub
That fight was some bullshit.
- JRJoe Rogan
... he had was last night against Daley. And i- i- there were some holes. There were some holes that were exposed. It was way too easy for Daley to take him down.
- BSBrendan Schaub
But he's only 13 and 0.
- JRJoe Rogan
That's true, but he still-
- BSBrendan Schaub
He's only 13 fights.
- JRJoe Rogan
It was way too easy for Daley to take him down. Not that ... I mean, Daley doesn't have-
- BSBrendan Schaub
His next fight's gonna be tough.
- 11:44 – 14:05
Camp choices, altitude vs sea level, and ‘science-based’ training talk
- BSBrendan Schaub
Dude, where did ... I thought, uh, uh, uh, uh, Francis was gonna go to a new camp. And I saw he's just training full time in France. I'm like ...Not the best-
- JRJoe Rogan
Hmm.
- BSBrendan Schaub
... wrestling in France, but we'll figure it out.
- JRJoe Rogan
Hmm. There's-
- BSBrendan Schaub
Maybe just hitting, like, the heavy w- weigh.
- JRJoe Rogan
I mean, where would he go? Like, you'd want him to go to two places in my opinion. I'd want him to go to either ATT or AKA. Right? ATT, they got a lot of... Uh, th- they got enough heavyweights, and they have a phenomenal coaching staff, right? But you want, you want someone big to work with. And AKA, they're not really gonna probably take him.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Or go to Elevation Fight Team, where you got-
- JRJoe Rogan
Hmm.
- BSBrendan Schaub
... you got Curtis Blaydes-
- JRJoe Rogan
Right.
- BSBrendan Schaub
... and Overeem, who he's fought, both of them.
- JRJoe Rogan
Right, right, right.
- BSBrendan Schaub
And you got great coaching at-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
... the altitude there.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yep, that's true.
- BSBrendan Schaub
You got great strike in Christian Alan.
- JRJoe Rogan
You know, the thing about that altitude training is... It's really interesting. I was talking to TJ Dillashaw, and, you know, he used to think that altitude training was where it's at, until he started working with Kalavita, and he thinks that you, you get more work in-
- BSBrendan Schaub
I agree with him.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Same.
- JRJoe Rogan
More working at sea level.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Yeah, 'cause I... My whole career was in Denver.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, Fili with the right hand there.
- BSBrendan Schaub
And then when you come to sea level, you're like, "Fu-... I can do work, man."
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
"I can put work."
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, so, like, the, what they're saying is, like, the amount of reps, the amount of work you do, like...
- BSBrendan Schaub
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
What he's doing with Kalavita is fucking phenomenal. The podcast I did with him was one of the most informative podcasts I've ever done with a fighter, in terms of, like, how technical his training routine is, his diet is, how everything is broken down to a science as far as, like, what to do when and when to do what.
- 14:05 – 16:01
Bantamweight talk: Sterling results, Moraes’ rise, and title picture frustrations
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, Calen, such a silly goose. This is a good fucking fight, man. These guys are so well, well matched.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Really good fight. Uh, did Sterling beat Jimmy Rivera?
- JRJoe Rogan
He must have. He was-
- BSBrendan Schaub
Yeah, he looked-
- JRJoe Rogan
... smiling and laughing-
- BSBrendan Schaub
... pretty happy.
- JRJoe Rogan
... on the way out.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Jimmy Rivera's a motherfucker.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
It's a tough fight.
- JRJoe Rogan
I wonder what happened. Jamie, can you, uh, find the results?
- BSBrendan Schaub
Anyone who trains with Sterling, anyone who trains... Uh, he gets in the training room, he's a freak.
- JRJoe Rogan
Hmm.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Super freak.
- JRJoe Rogan
That just shows you how good Marlon Moraes is.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Correct.
- JRJoe Rogan
He's the motherfucker I wanna see fight for the title.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Me too.
- JRJoe Rogan
He's so good, man.
- BSBrendan Schaub
He's so goddang good.
- JRJoe Rogan
The way he looked against Assuncao when he finished Assuncao.
- BSBrendan Schaub
45?
No one, no one finishes him.
35?
- JRJoe Rogan
35.
- BSBrendan Schaub
35.
- JRJoe Rogan
Bantamweight. Yeah, no one finishes Assuncao. You beat him with a close decision if you're lucky.
- BSBrendan Schaub
I asked TJ about it, and he's like, "Yeah, I'd fight him, but all they care about is the Cejudo rematch."
- JRJoe Rogan
Hmm.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Unanimous.
- 16:01 – 18:16
Nick Diaz retirement vibe and Jon Jones vs Anthony Smith preview
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs) Nick Diaz, you hear what he said, man? He said, "I don't wanna hurt nobody, I wanna party."
- BSBrendan Schaub
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
Says he's done.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Really?
- JRJoe Rogan
Yep.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Good for him, man.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Nick Diaz is done?
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, because, uh, Ander- there... Someone was talking about Anderson versus Nick, and-
- BSBrendan Schaub
Uh, N-
- JRJoe Rogan
... uh, Conor said, "I'll fight Nate on the same card," and then Nick said, "Yeah, I'm not fighting anybody. I don't wanna hurt nobody." He goes, "I just wanna party."
- BSBrendan Schaub
That's cool, man.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, good for him.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Good for him. He's done.
- JRJoe Rogan
Fucking amazing career.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Mm-hmm.
- JRJoe Rogan
You gotta remember, Nick Diaz fought... He was one of the youngest guys to ever fight in the UFC. I believe he beat Robbie Lawler when he was 20.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Dude, he's beat s- you look-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
... at his resume, it's impressive-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
... the, the guys that he's fought. He's been doing it for a hot second. He's deserved to b-
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
... turn down fights.
- JRJoe Rogan
He deserves to retire.
- BSBrendan Schaub
And be like, "You know, I'm f- fucking good."
- JRJoe Rogan
He deserves to retire.
- BSBrendan Schaub
And hopefully financially he's good too.
- JRJoe Rogan
What do you think of this? Anthony Smith and Jon Jones? What do you think of this? What are you looking at?
- BSBrendan Schaub
Uh.
- 18:16 – 22:43

- BSBrendan Schaub
He, he opened up tonight-
- JRJoe Rogan
That's great.
- BSBrendan Schaub
... on the ESPN portion.
- JRJoe Rogan
Oh, okay.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Rashad's amazing.
- BCBryan Callen
Yeah, Rashad's great.
- JRJoe Rogan
One of the best guys in the sp- G- g- great guy.
- BSBrendan Schaub
One of the best. Have you had him on?
- JRJoe Rogan
One of the best guys. No, I'd love to.
- BSBrendan Schaub
I haven't had him either.
- JRJoe Rogan
I would love to.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Me t- I love fighting with you.
- BCBryan Callen
Bring him on.
- JRJoe Rogan
How about we do?
- BSBrendan Schaub
Let's do it again. Let's do it together.
- JRJoe Rogan
That would be great. We should do it.
- BCBryan Callen
(laughs)
- BSBrendan Schaub
Let's run a train on him.
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- BSBrendan Schaub
On a podcasting train. We'll run a train on him.
- JRJoe Rogan
I, I love that... He's such a sweet person too.
- BCBryan Callen
I've had... I've had some conversations with him. That guy's... He's a lot smarter than you might think. That guy's, that guy's-
- BSBrendan Schaub
He's very smart.
- BCBryan Callen
Yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
He reaches out to me out of... Like, when things are going bad or I'm having an issue, or like, y- it's out in the public-
- JRJoe Rogan
Mm-hmm.
- BSBrendan Schaub
... he'll reach out to me then, always giving me, like, words of wisdom.
- JRJoe Rogan
I b- I would believe that. He's a sweetheart of a guy.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Always, always. He's that guy.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- 22:43 – 25:20
Streaming wars for fights: DAZN, subscription future, and Fight Pass habits
- JRJoe Rogan
They do that. They do that all the time. They have one on, uh, Paramount, and then they have one on DAZN. I watched it on DAZN on my phone. Um, I got one of those DAZN accounts.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And, you know, I was, I was in Vegas for this event my daughter was doing. And so I, I had f... I'm like, "I'll be right back." I fucking-
- BCBryan Callen
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
... my daughter was done with her things. I had to run to the top of the stairs and watch that shit.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Some bullshit.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, but the other person didn't have to take a shit, so you catch the fight.
- BSBrendan Schaub
I was so looking forward to it. I didn't... I told my, I told my wife what I was doing. Dude, I f- flew from the comedy store. I usually hang out... Theo's gonna be there. We- we're supposed to talk some business about the show and I literally... I was like, "Dude, I have to go." He's like, "Why?" I'm like, "Dude, MVP and Daley are fighting." He's like, "Who?" I'm like, "I'll tell you later. Let's just talk tomorrow."
- BCBryan Callen
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
(laughs)
- BSBrendan Schaub
I fucking flew home after my set.
- JRJoe Rogan
Theo.
- BSBrendan Schaub
I get home and I'm waiting. I'm like, "What the fuck is this?"
- JRJoe Rogan
Do you have DAZN or did you watch it on Paramount?
- BSBrendan Schaub
I have DAZN.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
(laughs)
- JRJoe Rogan
They got a lot of good fights on that. They're... I mean, it's interesting-
- BCBryan Callen
I didn't even know what the fuck it was.
- JRJoe Rogan
D-A-Z... It looks like DAZN, right?
- BSBrendan Schaub
It's a terrible name.
- JRJoe Rogan
But it's a bad name. It's... Well, it's a, it's a... It's D-A-Z-N as in bad.
- BCBryan Callen
Do you have to have cable to watch the fight?
- BSBrendan Schaub
No, no.
- JRJoe Rogan
No, you can watch it on e- any internet connection.
- BSBrendan Schaub
I don't have cable right now. Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
I just wa- I watched it on my phone. Um, but-
- EBEddie Bravo
'Cause Paramount Network, you have to have, like, you have to have an account with DirecTV or some shit.
- JRJoe Rogan
Yeah, but DAZN-
- BSBrendan Schaub
Yes.
- 25:20 – 30:12

Gordon Ryan tore his knee.

Oh, Gordon Ryan got hurt.

We're gonna do Werdum/Gordon Ryan, uh, later on this year. But, um, it's a four-man combat jiu-jitsu absolute, uh, uh, bracket with, um, uh, Yuri Simoes, who's, uh, arguably one of the, one of the best Brazilian jiu-jitsu practitioners ever. ADCC medalist, gold medalist.

Monster.

Yeah, monster.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Yeah.

And then the, the second seed is, uh, John Thor Blank, who won EBI 17. He won the first-
- BSBrendan Schaub
Great name.
- EBEddie Bravo
... the first and only 16-man combat jiu-jitsu tournament. He won it all in regulation, all, every fight within two minutes, he sub- he subbed everybody. So, it's Yuri and John Thor Blank are the, the top two seeds. And then, uh, they, if they win their first fights, then they'll fight each other. And then, uh-
- JRJoe Rogan
Same night?
- EBEddie Bravo
Same night.

Dope.

- BCBryan Callen
If they were to do it.

That's fucking right, Kalen.

Yeah. Uh, uh, uh, uh. Yeah.

Wait a minute, who was Captain Marvel when we were kids?
- BSBrendan Schaub
I think it was-

Uh, a dude.
- JRJoe Rogan
Wait a minute.
- BSBrendan Schaub
I don't know.
- JRJoe Rogan
Right.
- BSBrendan Schaub
I'll, I'll look. I don't know.
- BCBryan Callen

That's what they're gonna do next.

Judging and rules: open scoring, five judges, commissions, and grounded fighter gray areas
- BSBrendan Schaub
Hey, you know-
- JRJoe Rogan
I wanted to talk about that. There's two thing ... I watched some Glory fights today while I was working out. Two things that Glory does better than UFC. One, five judges, not three.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Brilliant.
- JRJoe Rogan
Two, open scoring.
- BSBrendan Schaub
Love it.
What do you mean open scoring? What's that mean?
- JRJoe Rogan
That you know who's winning every round.
- BSBrendan Schaub
You know what's going on.
- JRJoe Rogan
You know what's going on. After every round-
- BSBrendan Schaub
Oh, wow.
- JRJoe Rogan
... the judges have to put up their scores. So if you see-
- BSBrendan Schaub
Huh.
- JRJoe Rogan
... a fucking domination and then you see ten-nine for the wrong guy-
- BSBrendan Schaub
Like what the fuck?
- JRJoe Rogan
... the whole crowd can go, "What the fuck?"
- BSBrendan Schaub
I love that.
Put the pressure on the motherfuckers.
I love it.
- JRJoe Rogan
I love it. I love it.
- BSBrendan Schaub
What would they have to do change it?
It's the commissions. It's not the UFC.
They blow ... It's the commission. Yeah.
- JRJoe Rogan
And by the way, you know, the best place to, to do that kind of change is right here. Andy Foster is like one of the most proactive, uh, ahead of the curve, intelligent guys in all ... And you know, and Bob Bennett over in Nevada is just as good. He's excellent too. They can do this. They can-
- BSBrendan Schaub
But if, if Nevada does it-
- JRJoe Rogan
They just need to vote on it.
- BSBrendan Schaub
If Nevada does it-
- JRJoe Rogan
Everybody does it.
- BSBrendan Schaub
... everyone's going to do it.
- JRJoe Rogan
Everybody. Yeah.
- BSBrendan Schaub
So we just need Nevada.
